But frankly I would not buy the COMP for the Wiss, unless you a lightweight; you'll want to upgrade the fork and rear shock which means you should immediately go for the Elite.
Well, as you probably saw when you met me today at the beginner clinic, I'm no lightweight! LOL!
But I bought what I could afford, and it's holding up for now. Hopefully it will get me through the year.
I have a little list of bikes that I'd like to look into for next year, but for now, the Comp is getting me out there and having a blast.
(oh, and yes, the Khyber is on my list too!
)

Mountainbiking is addictive. There may possibly come a point where the used car you are driving is worth less than your bike.
